Originally called 'Subiaco', Camellia station opened in 1885. The station gained it's current name in September 1901. Camellia consists of a single platform, station building, car park and a pedestrian level crossing. Just before the station is the junction to the now abandoned Sandown Railway line.
In 2014 the station was the least used station in all of Sydney, with only 70 boarding's per day on average being recorded.
As the line gets converted to light rail, Camellia station will become the junction for the light rail lines to Carlingford and Strathfield.
